Pat took my case for a suspected DUI in the summer of 2019. I spoke to 5 attorneys and neither of them had the knowledge of the law the exuded from the 20 minute call with Mr. Pat Maher. I felt confident with my decision to have Mr. Maher representing me based on the genuine interest that he showed d...uring our phone call and the time that he's spent educating himself on the laws and regulations of the standardized field sobriety tests. Pat had educated me on what I would be facing and when the day of trial arrived I was nervous due to the unknown ahead, but I also had confidence knowing that Pat was there with me. My nervousness quickly went to the wayside when Mr. Maher started poking and prodding at the evidence posed against me. Pat dissembled the evidence posed against me like a technician and by the time it was all said and done, I had officers who witnessed the trial come up to me and say that it was one of the greatest defenses that they had ever seen. If you're still reading this, call Mr. Pat Maher. I know it wouldn't think twice. Thank you Pat.

Not only a fantastic attorney, Pat is a decent human being. I am confident that following his counsel, one can rely on the very best possible results. Not only will he suggest effective measures one should take before going to trial, he will explain thoroughly how to proceed and why one should do so.... Pat was always available for me and I was truly comforted by his presence and guidance. In my case, I received a jail sentence in District Court. In what seemed like only moments, Pat was at my cell door and had a plan. I was out of jail within hours and we appealed to Circuit Court. Before my case was heard in Circuit, I was informed by a number of my friends (at least four of whom are attorneys themselves) that I was lucky to get such a light jail sentence in District! I continued to do everything Pat suggested I do before going to Circuit Court and when that date arrived, he followed through with his plan. The result: 18 months probation and NO JAIL. Word can not describe how grateful I am to have been referred to this man. He is extremely competent. My family and I highly recommend him to any who face a legal issue of great importance.

I found Mr. Maher on AVVO after reading his reviews I knew he was the attorney for me. He walked me through what I should expect and explained everything in detail. Mr. Maher got my case dismissed arguing that my fourth amendment rights were violated which the judge agreed with. Also, at my MVA hear...ing he argued that the officer did not explain my rights efficiently and therefore I should not have my license suspended of course he won that argument. Anyone needing an outstanding DUI/DWI attorney Patrick is your man.

When I got my DUI it was devastating. Not knowing what to expect was the worst of it. Unless I wanted to blindly go into this legal matter I’d need to find a good lawyer, preferably one who specializes in DUIs. I had already met with 4 attorneys and didn’t feel that any of them could help me…I jus...t wasn’t satisfied with their responses to my questions. Thankfully I had a family friend, a native of Catonsville MD, who recommended Pat Maher to me. He was more expensive than the others (they were asking 1,400-1,800 for their services) but after meeting with Pat it was obvious that he knew what I was up against and would advise me on what to do and what to expect. And he did. He knew exactly what the judge would be looking for and advised me on what I should do to avoid any problems or setbacks, like having my license suspended or jail time, so I did everything he asked of me. We appeared in front of the MVA judge three times and the criminal judge once, and each time I was less and less anxious. Being represented by Mr. Maher and having him beside me in a courtroom setting was fantastic. He even got the MVA judge to delay the trial until the officer who was in charge of the breathalyzer on the night of my arrest could appear in court with us because of a problem he found on the paperwork. Because of his efforts not only was my license never suspended or revoked but I ended up with ZERO POINTS on my driving record! Hiring Pat Maher was the smartest thing I could have done. If you’re dealing with a DUI and are looking for a lawyer to represent you call and meet with Pat before making a final decision.
